Candace Owens Wins An Award No One Has Heard Of

Girl, please.

Candace Owens is doing everything humanly possible to be the next Omarosa. She seeks as much praise from white conservatives as possible. She publicly insults Black people who don’t agree with her by making slave references. She is also a clear con artist and opportunist. Fame and attention in politics is much easier when you are the “rare” Black conservative as opposed to a Black progressive. Well, for all of this foolery, Owens has been honored with an award that no one knows.

There is no information on this so-called Impact Award and one Twitter user even pointed out, “Oh yes the ‘Impact Award.’ *Looks it up. Find about a thousand different awards called the ‘Impact Award.’* Well okay I’m gonna assume it was for… uh… Highest safety ratings in vehicle crash tests.”

No word on what this Impact Award is. Maybe she is receiving an award for Blexit, which is a slogan stolen from the Bank Black movement. Mavbe it’s for “using” Kanye West. Maybe it’s for saying the NRA is “the nation’s oldest civil rights organization” and was founded “to train Black Americans to use guns to defend themselves against the Ku Klux Klan, a Democrat terrorist group.” Maybe it’s for blaming the horrifying mail bombs back in October on Democrats, by tweeting then deleting, “I’m going to go ahead and state that there is a 0% chance that these ‘suspicious packages’ were sent out by conservatives. The only thing ‘suspicious’ about these packages is their timing. Caravans, fake bomb threats—these leftists are going ALL OUT for midterms.”

Candace Owens’ impact is being a hack who is saying anything for attention.

“This is just going to show victims that they can make it through and that there’s justice at the end. Hallelujah,” a witness in Bill Cosby’s criminal case says after he was sentenced to 3-10 years in state prison #tictocnewspic.twitter.com/mcqHCxdybN

Much hangs in the balance for Bill Cosby. He entered the courthouse, without emotion. As of 10:45, the judge took a recess to rule on if Cosby is a sexually violent predator. Sentencing will begin shortly after that. @CBSPhillypic.twitter.com/6duFfCeODc

There was also the concern over how Cosby would be classified following his conviction.

UPDATED: 8:36 a.m. EDT, Sept. 25 -- Bill Cosby has arrived at the suburban Philadelphia courthouse Tuesday, when he was expected to be sentenced to prison for his sexual assault conviction months earlier. The disgraced comedian who was found guilty of drugging and sexually assaulting a woman in 2004 emerged from his luxury SUV smiling and pointed to onlookers at the Montgomery County Courthouse in Norristown, Pennsylvania.

The prosecutor in the case has pushed for Cosby to serve 10 years in prison, but the judge has hinted that the sentence may be closer to three years.
Accusers had an opportunity to speak directly to Cosby and the court during the first installment of the two-day sentencing hearing. Speakers included Andrea Constand, the woman whose claims of sexual assault prompted the trial, and former supermodel Janice Dickinson.

UPDATED: 4:35 p.m. EDT -- Bill Cosby was reportedly expected to be sentenced to no more than three years, the judge presiding over his sexual assault trial and sentencing hearing said Monday. That stood in contrast to the prosecutor reportedly seeking as much as a decade behind bars.

However, it was unclear when Cosby would be sentenced because of a reported request submitted by the defense at the start of the two-day sentencing hearing on Monday.
Cosby was being sentenced about five months after being found guilty of sexually assaulting Andrea Constand in 2004.

The hearing was expected to last two days to afford Constand and Cosby's alleged victims an opportunity to offer their "victim impact statements" to the disgraced comedian.

According to Deadline, Cosby's "lawyers today made a last-ditch sleight-of-hand that could knock the two-day sentencing hearing off the rails right after it started and keep him from potentially going behind bars this week."

Bill Cosby was scheduled on Monday to be sentenced for his sexual assault conviction, but not before his confirmed and alleged victims literally have their say. The woman who a jury found was drugged and groped by the disgraced comedian was expected to lead a group of women making their "victim impact statements" to Cosby ahead of his sentencing, which was set to last two days.
Cosby arrived at the courthouse in Norristown, Pennsylvania, a suburb of Philadelphia, with his legal team in tow. His main accuser, Andrea Constand, had already arrived, as well as other accusers, including former supermodel Janice Dickinson.
A small group of protesters had assembled outside the courthouse in a scene that was similar to the retrial, which ended in April and followed the original trial that ended in a mistrial last year.
Regardless of the sentencing – Cosby could either be sentenced to a maximum 30 years and be led out of the courtroom in handcuffs or he could be sentenced to probation – the case is likely bound to continue as defense attorneys were expected to announce an immediate appeal.
Cosby’s fall from grace has been especially notable because he built his career on a clean, family-friendly image that was shredded when he was indicted and arrested on Constand’s accusation that had gone all but ignored until Montgomery County District Attorney Kevin Steele won his election and vowed to finish the job his predecessor never started.
The comedian's wife filed an ethics complaint with the state judicial board last week claiming Judge Steven O'Neill was biased, but the accusation wasn’t expected to affect the sentencing.
Below are some of the scenes from Cosby’s sentencing hearing. The photos and videos will be updated as they become available.
